Against Image worship, Protestants bring in the place [ A] of Exodus, Chap. 20. ver. 4. & 5. and of Deuteron. cap. 5. ver. 6. & 7. Thou shalt not haue false gods before me, Thou shalt not make to thy selfe a grauen Jmage, nor any likenesse, either in the heauen aboue, or on the earth be∣low, or of things that are vnder waters, or vnder ground: Thou shalt not adore, nor worship them. Which place I wonder they can thinke strong enough to ouerthrow a Cu∣stome, in which the rules of Nature, the principles of Chri∣stianitie, [ B] the perpetuall Tradition of Gods Church, doth settle Christians; for this place makes against them, or not against vs, which I prooue thus: The Images we are for∣bidden to worship, we are forbidden to make; Thou shalt not make to thy selfe any grauen Jmage, thou shalt not a∣dore them, nor worship them. Contrariwise, The Jmages we may lawfully make, we may also lawfully adore or wor∣ship, if they be Images of venerable and adorable persons. [ C] But the Images which we worship of Christ, Protestants make, yea some, to wit, Lutherans, set them vp in their Churches, and they are Images of an adoreable person: Ergo, They cannot condemne our Adoration of Jmages, except likewise they condemne their making them, as against Gods Law.
